Confidential site - Create Due Date Notification Email with Nintex

I hope you can help
I'm trying to create a workflow that will send multiple notifications dependant on a column called 'Remediation deadline'(This is a date field) The notifications are planned for 3 months
before the remediation date as an 'Action', 2 months before the remediation date as 'High' and 1 month for 'Critical'.
I have created a calculated field to put the date into the correct format using =TEXT([Remediation deadline],'dd/mm/yy') in an effort to run the workflow from this date if possible as the formats
are correct(Not sure if the format even makes a difference?)
I'm new to SharePoint which means my knowledge is very limited, also the site I'm currently working on is a confidential site, so I have no access to designer and if I choose to add a WebPart,
I have to send it over to another team to action which is highly frustrating as they are not as eager as me to reach my goal.
The problem I face is where I go from here with such limited access. The only notification process that works is based within Nintex, but from the documentation I’ve read, you need to
be able to run the 'CallWebPart' function. I also have 1200 records that can't be removed from the task list, I tried a loop process but it caused the server to fall over as our main server is in a different country so each loop had to bounce back and
forth through the process for each record!!
We have the availability of Nintex but are unable to use the 'CallWebAccess' function as this would require our server ID and password (and that won't be happening anytime soon).
I have created a column called 'Notify Date3' (And so on for the additional date notifications)which contains the following formula
=TEXT([Remediation deadline]-92,"dd/mm/yyyy") which I use to create the date around 3 months before the first remediation date so I can create a notification.
Any advise on the best way to process will be greatly received as i'm slowly pulling my hair out
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
According to your description, you might want to implement a functionality which can send notification in different date based on the value of a column.
If you can use SharePoint Designer 2010 workflow, there are workflow actions like “Pause for Duration” and “Pause until Date” which can pause the workflow for a period. Plus
with using some conditions in the logic of the workflow process, it will be able to send notification in different date.

Here is a demo about the similar requirement provided by Laura for your reference:

If you want to use Nintex workflow, it would be more appropriate to post to its forum to get quick and confirmed answers:

Due Date for Emails

Hi Experts,
System: SAP CRM 2007 (WEB UI)
I am trying to set-up ERMS Due date for incoming emails. I am trying out the Standard funtionality by using the two services
FG_ESCALTIME
UT_ESCALDETERM
Can any one help me with the Properties that I should set up for FG_ESCALTIME service. Also, when I am using Property--> METHOD and PROPERTY VALUE --> 2 for the service UT_ESCALDETERM, the routing is failing.
Can someone help me fix this.

Hello,
Have you tried using the BADI "CUSTOM_HIT_LIST_SORT" to define that email work items should be sorted in ascending order? You might also look at some of the other BADIs for the Agent Inbox as well such as "AFTER_SEARCH" or "COMPUTE_DEADLINE_AND_PRIORITY". Please take a look at the 82 page FAQ document attached to SAP Note 882653 (Frequently Asked Question about IC Agent Inbox) in case you have not already done so.
Warm regards,

Modify default due date and alarm with To dos

Is it possible to modify the default alarm due date when creating a to do? Currently, when creating a to do from an email message, if you click on the arrow, youget a "to do options" pop up. The default is no due date and no alarm. When you choose a due date, the default is a message, one day before, at 11:45 PM. Can I change those default settings globally, so that the default is, say, 8 AM?
Even better would be a plugin or setting like in ical that automatically sets an alarm. Anyone know of such a plug in?

AP PAYABLES- Not getting all the DUE DATE's in with split schedule payments

Hello All,
We have some issues with AP Data loading's into our DW from EBS 11.5.10 AP - PAYABLES.
One of our customer is using split schedule and share payment into few payment. Our

We are using PAYMENT_NUM=1 from ap_payment_schedules_all table as condition to load the Data to avoid duplicate rows coming for Payables.
Some hints: removing the "PAYMENT_NUM=1" from the where clause gives all the due_dates but then we have duplicate rows for Payables.

Hi,
Below solution worked for us :
Whenever the document message related procedure is modified and compiled we need to STOP and START all the workflow related services,
Homepage -> Workflow Manager -> Service Components => STOP all Services => Start All Services
NOTE: Even when we bounced the database, application server the error is still occuring, only when we STOP and START the services whenever we compiled the document message procedures then the emails are getting processed.
The Metalink Forum note 588112.992 (ORA-04061: existing state of has been invalidated ORA-04061: existing state of package) is helpful in getting the solution Below is a snippet of the same :

Loren,
we had a similar ORA-04061 error when we tried to compile a Workflow package
after we modified it with new attributes. What we were told was that some
workflow process or listener is still "thinking" the package is invalid even
though it is valid. Whenever packages referred by the workflow process is
changed, the Agent listeners and mailer must be bounced. Worst case scenario
if the error still persist is that the database may have to be bounced as
well.
Please try bouncing the Agent listeners or, if it possible, bounce the
database and see if you are still getting the error after that.
The listeners that you need to bounce are all the listeners that you have
enabled under OAM > Workflow Manager > Service Components,
including the Workflow Notification Mailer.
Hope this helps thanks,

Dynamically create Variant Data Socket items with multiple writers

I want to use variant or cluster items with data socket connection. I want to allow multiple writers.
So far I can create these items dynamically but not set them to allow multiple writers.
For numeric, string, and Boolean items I can set these properties by predefining them in the data socket server manager. I could not predefine a variant or cluster in the manager.
I realize I can flatten to string the item needed but would prefer to do this in the cluster or variant formats.
Any suggestions?

unclebump wrote:
Could you accomplish this using a functional global architecture??
An interesting concept which might work and did just open up a new host of possibilities!
When I get the time I might give this a try. I just did a quick test in another program.
Through VI server I opened a reference to a remote machine. I then created strictly typed reference to a âfunctional global viâ that I knew would be in memory. It reads the functional global just fine!
Thanks for the suggestion.
Here is the work around I used for the data socket program.
Here is the original problem.
I needed to know on the server side when a new value was written to the message cluster, which consisted of a string and a variant. Checking the string portion of the cluster let me know what command to send the device being controlled on the server machine. The variant is used to hold the various parameters that accompanied the command. Since the same command type could be sent several times I needed to reset the string control after the server read the command. This required writing to the data socket from the client & server machine (multiple writers). Also since the client could be any PC in the subnet I needed to allow all these machines to have write access.
I solved this by using a second data socket item for the new message flag. This item is a string value that could be pre-defined and set to allow multiple writers. I then used the cluster item to handle the commands and wrote to the string item a signal that a new command was ready. The server then recognizes a new command is ready, reads the command, and then flags the string message received.
Thanks again for those who took the time to answer this.

Wrong DATE-TIME FORMAT among REPORTS NOTIFICATION EMAILs

Dear all,
I create a report request with url
https://ocixxxx2.oci.xxcl.net/reports/rwservlet?>destype=printer&desformat=PDF&server=rep_xxxxx2_orahome&userid=ixxxxxx/xxxxxxx@saas&notifysuccess=IASL&notifyfailure=IASL&report=R1000R13.rdf&jobname=R1000R13&desname=HPLaserJet4150PCL6
Email notification was generated with wrong date format .
It's expected to be in UK English but it shows encoded text , may be random. I route it to another email servers such that find the date time is in chinese characters . That caused problem on original email server in which was not supported
Could any expert please advice ?
Warmly

It's indeed an expected behavior.
When a Reports Server starts on a Windows machine, it likely detect the Windows Regional Settings in order to use it when needed later. This let the Reports Server communicate in the same format/way the Server machine uses. For example, if the System / Application Server administrator prefers to use the Windows (on which the Application Server is installed) with Chinese Regional Options, it is normal that the Reports Server send the Notification Email with a "Date/Time" Format matches the Windows.
Thence, you like to get English/Western Date and Time format in the Reports Server Notification Email, it is required to change the Windows Regional Settings from Chinese to English and restart the Reports Server and restart the corresponding compoent. This will let the Reports Server detect the change and will send the Notification Email(s) then with English/Western Date and Time formats.
If English/Western Date and Time format in the Reports Server Notification Email but still have the Windows Regional Settings set to Chinese, you can implement it
that :-
1. Change the Windows Regional Settings from Chinese to English.
2. Restart the Reports Server and restart others.
3. Change the Windows Regional Settings back from English to Chinese. .
With these 3 steps, the Reports Server will keep sending the Notification Emails with English/Western Date and Time format, and maintain original settings.

Send email with attachment from Q2 notification to external email

Hi,
Whenever I create a Q2 notification, I want to send the vendor, details of the notification as attachment. Now it is copying the "coordinator" from partner function. But not copying vendor data in select partner function. Here I have to manually select the vendor. Another question here is that, this email should trigger to the email id of vendor maintained in the vendor master. This email address will be an external id. Please suggest the best way to send email to vendor along with attachment.
Thanks

Is there a way to create a due date in Reminders on the iPhone like you can in iCal, rather than just a reminder?

I realized that I can create due dates on iCal for tasks that sink to my reminders (so I am still reminded of a task, but also know when it NEEDS to be done). The problem is when I try to create a new task in reminders on the iPhone, it only gives me the option to set a time to remind me. I understand that this is the point on the app, but if it is going to sync with iCal, it should have the same functionality. I am curious if there is something I am overlooking.

I don't think so. Reminders is very limited app.

Create data merged document with data on every second page?

Is it possible to create a data merged document with the variable data only on every second page?
I have set up the pages with the variable data as a master page (on every odd page) with the text box and paragraph style all set up, and I have set 'override master page items' so the data can be placed, but InDesign seems to freeze up when I try to create the merged document?

There should be no problem doing the merge with a two-page master and a two-page template document with fields only on one page (and off the top of my head there's no reason to move them off the master page if that's where you put them). I think the problem here is that rachrachm already has a file of 500 pages (based on another thread asking how to apply masters to every other page).
It's potentially possible to simply place the data file (without the header row) as a text file and auto-flow through the master page frames (can't say for sure without seeing the files), or if the pages without the merge fields are the same just, remove all but the first two pages from the template and do the merge.
As I metioned earlier, though, this is a very inefficient method of producing that sort of document. A true variable data print flow would be better (you'd need to find a commercial printer who can do it with your data file), or the home version would be to make one single page file for the static content, print 250 copies (plus a few extras, just in case), then make a single page merge template, do the merge, and print that on the back of the already printed pages, or as a separate page. It is immeasurably faster to print multiple copies of a document than it is to print a document that has multiple identical pages.
